Importance of Environmental Planning

Environmental considerations are critical to Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs) as they play a vital role in ensuring the sustainability and health of the communities they serve. These considerations encompass a broad range of issues, including air and water quality, climate change, land use, natural resources, and wildlife. MPOs are responsible for developing long-term transportation plans that balance the mobility needs of their region with environmental impacts. This requires integrating environmental factors into decision-making processes, considering alternative transportation modes and routes, and minimizing the environmental impact of transportation infrastructure. By prioritizing environmental considerations, MPOs can help promote a healthier, more sustainable, and more livable future for the communities they serve.
